Just at this moment the United States
is exporting wheat in quantities seldom
equaled in the past. The aggregate Of
wheat and of -four reduced to wheat sent
abroad in June was 16, 120, 1873 bushels.
These are large figures, and, if exports
continue at this rate for few months,
will turn the balance of trade somewhat
more handsomely in our favor than il
has been this year SO far. The recent
corner in Chicago, by raising the price OF
that commodity relatively above Eulop.
can prices, prevented, to large extent,
the sales of our surplus abroad. The EFF.
feet of this has been felt with, more OF
less severity in tht money market and in
general trade.

Congressman Pidcock, of New Jersey,
owns 800 cows and creamery and
claims to be the largest dairyman in the
United States He says the business has
never been SO profitable to darymen as ii
is this year. The demand is far ahead OF
the supply, and while the price fixed by
the milk Exchange is 40, a can minus
the freight charge of 40 cents per can,
dairymen are actually receiving from 81 to
So a can. The receipts at New York are
$4,000 cans per day, which is heavier
than was ever known before, but the In
tense heat and the frequent thunder
showers causes it to sour before it reaches
the consumers A can holds 40 quarts

The financial experts who are proclaim
ing that general trade is dull because the
transactions on the stock exchanges and
board of trade ar light, are not as wise as
they imagine themselves to be. Within
tina past half year $3.50, 600, 900 have been
invested in industries in the Southern
States, $1O0, OOO, 600 in railroad construc-
ton, and $4OO, 600, 600 in new buildings,
with at least $500. OOO, COO in lands, in
farms and city lots. This does not pOr-
tend any great amount of depression in
general business. The fact is, the public
is leaving the exchanges severely alone,
because costly experience has proven that
the investor profits most who has the
least to do with these institutions.

OLDEST CONDUCTOR RE.
SIGNS.

OAOESI CONDUCTOR RE-
SIGNS.
John Bender, who for the past fourteen
or fifteen years has been q conductor on
the Atkinson, Topeka & Santa Fe.
twelve years of that time on passenger
trains, resigned his position yesterday, to
take effect at once. There is probably
no conductor as well known as Mr.. Ben
der. Always courteous and obliging, and
ready to help friend in need on and off
the road, his name has become q house
hold word with the travelling public from
Chicago to California.
During Mr.. Bender's connection with
the Santa Fe, the system has grown from
short line running from Atchison to
Topeka to line that now reaches from
Lake Michigan to California. And it is
like severing the connection between
father and son, for John is one of the
Santa Fe's children. Mr.. Bender has al
ways received the best of treatment, and
can only speak in the kindest terms of
the officials of the system with which he
has 80 long been connected.
Mr.. Bender came to the Santa Fe from
the Kansas City, Fort Scott s. Gulf in
1872, commencing his railroad career in
the Atlantic & Great Western in Ohio,
twenty three years ago, and from that
line to the Indianapolis s. st. Louis Mr..
Bender is therefore the oldest conductor
in the service of the Santa Fe.
Mr.. Bender intends to remain in the
real estate business, and to oversee his
ranch interests, which are getting to be
quite extensive.
Many stories are credited to John and
many jokes have been cracked at his ex-
pense; but whether he was the originator
Of the stories or jokes, he. always takes
everything in good grace and humor, al
lowing every one to have their fun even
if it should be at his own expense
Newton Republican.
1t is strange how Kansas people pros
per and this too Notwithstanding back
sets and difficulties that in other states
would be unsurmountable. Successive
years of drouth followed by grasshop-
pers failed to lower the spirits of Kan
sas agriculturists. They stood by
their pillow and waited better seasons,
until in the fulness of time there came
bountiful rains and glorious sunshine,
and field, orchard and plain attested
the unfitness of "drouthy Kansas as
an appellation descriptive of the Great
Prairie State. In all department Of
business the men of Kansas have ex-
hibited marvellous energy. In adver-
sity heroic, in prosperity assiduously
bent on making the most of their ad-
vantages. the "Jayhawkers" have
proven themselves sturdy race of
men.
81 can tell you," said L. @. c.
Lamar Jr., speaking of the battle-aag
incident, "why our folks kept so very
quiet. Most Of the men who run the
newspapers and business Of the south
were kids during the war. They learn
ed good deal then. I wenta year
without shoes and wore straw hat all
winter. When the war closed my father
had mt a dollar that was worth cent.
He had lots Of confederate. stuff, but it
was no good. Grandfather used thou
sands of dollars worth of it in grating
apple and pear trees. They boys of
the south don't care cent where the
battle flags are. The are looking after
brains and capital to come down from
the north and build up the south.
